is that this story is written to give the impression that the kid was kicked out for being different - that he was maliciously discriminated against for being in a wheelchair. That may be exactly what happened, but it is based entirely on the parents description of events. Personally, I know very few parents who accurately describe/assess their childrens behavior, especially when they feel they've been wronged. In this case, the manager may have been way out of line, or the child may have been truly disruptive. I don't think it signifies a flawed society to want to hear the theater's explanation before breaking out the tar and feathers...
